New Business Idea
-
I think we might be seeing to rise of a new business model - somewhat akin to patent trolling. It's easy. 1) Set up a not existent shop, selling non-existent products. 2) Include a non-disparagement clause in your lengthy ToS. 3) Aim for poor customer service and bad online reviews. 4) Sue 'customers' over said disparagement. 5) Profit Example[^]

Veni, vidi, vici.
Since they had gotten a refund and returned the product, there was no sale and the contract is void.

I remember reading an article on drudge report a couple of years ago about an online retailer with horrible customer service in Brooklyn NY They did that on purpose, because people would complain and post bad reviews about them, and there site landings would go through the roof, and sales just kept rising higher and higher. So the more negative reviews they had, the higher the sales went. Go Figure.
